10 THOUSAND STEPS
103
The starting point is the small church of
Saint Mark the Evangelist and Saint Thomas
the Apostle (1) of Vergnacco. Built in 1360, it
became sacramental a hundred years later
and was then enriched, in 1504, with works of
art commissioned to important artists such as
Bissone and Giovanni Martini.
Continuing along Via San Gervasio, you find
yourself walking along the new “Vergnacco-
Qualso” cycle-pedestrian track, which is
parallel to Provincial Road 38 of Cornappo.
This paved part of the route, straight and
without gradients, about 1 km long, is an
equipped and shaded rest area.
Continue until you reach the intersection with
Provincial Road 58. Proceed westwards on Via
Fanzio, and then join the dirt road of Via San
Gervasio, which leads to the Church of Saints
Gervase and Protase Martyrs (2)The church
dates back to the 14 th century and was restored
in 1773. From this point descend southwards
on the country track along the Mossolino
Stream until you reconnect with the cyclepedestrian
path parallel to Provincial Road 38,
which leads you back to the starting point.
From here, you can easily reach the hamlet of
Zompitta, where you can take the “Walk along
the Canals”, a path along the artificial canals
used for irrigation. It is characterised by the
charm and beauty of water and by the cultural
and scenic value of the places. Starting from
Zompitta, a site of water intake works, proceed
southward. The first part of the route winds
through ancient buildings such as the Minisini
House. During the walk, various drops and
differences in height enliven the watercourse.
Proceed to the hamlets of Cortale, and then
Valle, where the Segat Mill is located. The mill
is currently active producing corn flour. From
here, you can reach the place where the canal
splits in two, giving origin to the Udine Canal
and the Palma Canal, or “Turisiella”. Continuing
your walk, you reach the mills of Remugnano,
crossing Via Mussarie.
As an alternative, you can take the route to
Rizzolo, a village characterised by the presence
of an artificial canal, the old Berini furnace
and the Sbuelz blacksmiths workshop. A final
stretch of the route leads you to the small
church of Saint James in Tavella, in the hamlet
of Ribis.
